‘Chill Out’ At Harvey Nichols Foodmarkets

Feeling the stress of winter days as the end of January is nearing? In need of some rest & relaxation? Firefly Tonics and Harvey Nichols Foodmarkets have joined together to support the Samaritans’ first ever Stress Down Day by offering customers the perfect de-stressing package.

On Thursday 1 February 2007, after battling through the daily strains of city life, visit Harvey Nichols Foodmarket, purchase a set of Firefly’s limited edition ‘Chill Out’ drinks and receive a complimentary 10 minutes massage from a qualified member of the London School of Thai Massage.

To support the campaign, Firefly Tonics have produced a limited edition ‘Chill Out’ drink, specially formulated with fruit juices and potent herbs that are well-known for their calming properties. With each purchase of a Chill Out drink, Firefly will donate 10p to the Samaritans Stress Down campaign.

“A bit of pressure is good for us, but there’s a fine line between ‘good’ pressure and ‘bad’ stress. We believe in getting the most out of life, and we’re really impressed with Samaritans’ positive approach in encouraging people to recognise and deal with stress. That’s why we’re supporting their campaign.” Harry Briggs, Firefly co-Founder

“The Samaritans initiative of Stress Down Day is ideal for the hectic schedules of our Foodmarket customers living in London. In partnership with Firefly, our massage promotion can give them the brief chance to relax during a stress-filled day. We acknowledge how important it is to look after them at all times.” Simon Askew, Foodmarket Manager, Knightsbridge

Firefly ‘Chill Out’ massage promotion is available at Harvey Nichols Foodmarket London, on Saturday 27th January and Thursday 1st February 2007. With the purchase of four bottles of Firefly ‘Chill Out’, customers are able to sign up for a 10 minute head, hand or shoulder massage drink. Massages are available from 10am – 5pm and are subject to availability; first come, first served basis.

Samaritans and Stress Down Day

Samaritans are launching the first ever ‘Stress Down Day’ to encourage people to take care of their ‘emotional health’ by taking time to de-stress and chill out. Samaritans aim to make emotional health a mainstream issue, offering 24-hour confidential support to anyone in emotional distress. The service is offered by 17,000 trained volunteers and is entirely dependent on voluntary support. They received 4.7 million calls last year (almost one every 6 seconds).

Stress Down Day will officially be held on Thursday 1st February 2007.
